When Bags of Fun decided to find a mascot, Gabby’s love for the book “Where is My Frog?” hopped into our minds, and we chose a frog. After several attempts at the right look, we landed on the handsome green bullfrog we have today. We looked to the Bags of Fun community for the name, and Chuckles was born!
Did you know anyone can sponsor a bag of fun and be a part of the stuffing and delivering? Intellicents did just that at their national meeting in Kansas City.
Mission: To deliver a Bag of Fun to every child fighting a long-term or life-threatening condition.
Vision: We exist to bring joy, laughter and relief to every child whose health and happiness is threatened and/or compromised.
Bags of Fun Kansas City has delivered over 1,700 bags to children fighting life threatening conditions, and to think it all started with a house party and a pancake breakfast 11 years ago.
Bags of Fun KC is celebrating 10+ years of bringing joy, laughter, and relief to children in Kansas and Missouri. Thank you to our donors, corporate sponsors, and friends for their ongoing support!
